Left of Center (Turner) and Center of Center (Phelps) are screenwriters with satirical views on random headlines of the day. As one conservative Republican puts it: "..to me, it's not funny." and "...I think it is a bad reflection overall and frankly doesn't make me guffaw."

Flags Still at Half-Mast

I don't know if this is the case in the real world, but in right-wing Colorado Springs flags are still flying at half-mast. I sure hope this isn't still for Reagan -- seeing as he likely committed treason and all. I prefer to think that the flags are half-mast for other reasons:

* The color guard forgot to take his Viagra
* Republican bankers are too dim-witted to remember if the flag goes up or down during the day, so they've compromised
* Just like public education, tax breaks for the wealthiest Americans mean we can only afford to go halfway
* Flags are flying half-mast in loving memory of our manufacturing jobs

I don't think Reagozombie deserves it any longer, especially when you consider that if they're flew half-mast one day for every death attributable to the unnecessary Iraq war, they'd be there for almost 20 years. That's not so funny, is it?
